# # # #STATS LIST # # # #

Another March bus for us chatty lot! No religion or politics but feel free to bitch away about life/DH/work/too much sex/not enough sex.

Remember to update us with your changes in stats in a separate post with lots of #### to signify an update.

Let's get our BFPs!!!

Giddy doll, my mil is lovely. She just doesn't get the desperation I think.. She is of the "it will happens when it happens" brigade and told me to wait 3-4months after the early mc in jan to try again.. Not the 2 weeks we waited... ooopsy!

Ooh, you were right! xx

Wooo hoo wood great great news!! I'm about 5dpo I think so we are cycle buddies kinda too!

Hurrah sparkly! We're in it together! xx

Come on BFPs!!! This is gotta be it! What cycle you on now wood?!

Aaargh! Will I ever catch up? I'm another, like Mummy, who will largely post on here rather than the fb group; I simply can't devote any more time to t'internet with my little nipper growing and learning so fast

Ninja! Unbelievable! Magnificent! Joy! I'm so thrilled for you. Was it a wholly AI conception? May I ask what CD's you inseminated on? Thank you. Also, please remind me of your age

Wotsit, your post about the Tupperwomb contraption made me laugh Brilliant.

Knit, my IVF clinic were happy with a TSH (thyroid) level of over 2

Sparkly, I just discovered ewcm sat like jelly on my bog paper - and it stretched two inches between thumb & forefinger Sex tonight...

Erm..only on page 29 so bear with me. I'm in the middle of making a steak & ale stew with dumplings...

sparkly, am on cycle 5.... You? x

spinning hlad you had a nice lunch out. I think all men are big wusses, its a good job we do the labouring!

Congratulations Fifi!!!

Sparkly mils can say some very stupid things. Ignore her.

woodpigeon I agree that it's your weird cd14 temp, take it out and it will pop your cross hairs on.

Ok just seen you've done this - sorry catching up.

woody I'm cycle 6. I dunno if I count from 1 after the early mc in jan or not! .. I'm going with 6 I think! Oh and 80% of us get preggers within 6 cycles and that's without the use of OPKs etc so this is the one for you!!

Wotsit You what!? Jammy dodger in the shredder? Think it may be time you go home and get some proper food in you.

Sparkly Sorry about your MIL, nope I agree, a puppy or pony just won't cut it. We all want to be up the duff, carrying our own little sproglet.

Purdey are you not AI this month? Or do you mix it up so you get some too?

Congratulations fifi!

I'm not joining the Facebook group as too afraid that one of you might be someone I know - then how could I use this bus to vent about pg work colleagues without it getting back to them?! Incidentally did any of you find you already know each other? Xx

CD5 and feeling a bit flat. I think it's just the lull before TCC starts again but I just so want it to work out.

Congratulations fifi.

I'm exhausted and feel I could happily sleep for days right now. Could be pmt symptoms because I actually feel like punching DH in the face and if he says "it'll work out eventually" or "it will happen when it happens" (no, you don't say, doh!), one more time I won't be able to restrain myself

dojo going home for real food required me going to do some food shopping first as its like Old Mother Hubbards in the wotsit house!

Did a big shop and now am home and can't be bothered putting it away or cooking! Dominos?

Good to hear sparkly, I will let her off. Couldn't have people upsetting our sparkly.

Mm... Dumplings. My fave. We had chicken fajitas. Ds ate all of the guacamole made for three (fine, I exaggerate, I mushed up some of ds' avocado).

sammylou I don't think anyone knows each other! Were all spread across the country I think. Would it help if you knew the areas people lived in?

Oooo, congrats, fifi! Well done, old girl! So...are you suggesting you conceived on CD19 with semen deposited on CD16? Impressive!

Has anyone else noticed that it is largely the lesser-posting ladies who are ending up preggers? Is it coz they iz too busy rumpying to chat shite on here?

On to page 30...

dojo don't you feel like the start of the cycle is like the calm before the storm? All is serene and then BAM you're at it like rabbits and suddenly symptom spotting!

I will post here more than fb, I don't want to accidentally post my sex habits or cm type on my fb feed

Another FB pregnancy update. This time with the scan photo printed on a T-shirt. Am happy for them, but it made my heart do a little jump when I saw it. Seems bloody unfair that I can't even get off the starting blocks and have no idea what's going on in my (un)bloody womb! I just want to get going with it all!

Sorry, grumble over. I'm tired and that's making it worse.

Have just skim-read through the posts from today, but huge congrats to fifi and ninja for your BFPs

I am all about the symptom spotting. Today's is feeling a bit queasy still and am weirdly hot...

Dinner in the Heir household is sausages shoved in a roasting tin with butternut squash, new potatoes and garlic, chilli, Rosemary and fennel seeds. Very old recipe that I make at least once a fortnight.

Oooh just found 3 bottles of Christmas Prosecco when delving into the back of my pantry to put the food shop away! Result!

Who was it who wanted suggestions for their 'hope' tattoo? I remembered this today by St. Augustine:

'Hope has two beautiful daughters: their names are anger and courage. Anger that things are the way they are. Courage to make them the way they ought to be.'

Not sure if that's too long but I like it anyway

2 BFPs in the last couple of days - yippeeee for you both Ninja & Fifi

Sparkly I can't believe your MIL said that. Do you bring up TTC with her or does she ask about how you're getting on?

Eskimo I'm so sorry AF is still MIA for you

wotsits I agree entirely with your calm before the storm analogy. That's exactly what it's like (and I'm only on CD10, cycle 2...)

SMEP'd on Fri and due to do so again today, as DH told me as he walked in the door after work. Haven't bothered with opks yet (which I hope I won't regret) as I'm also using the saliva scope so will wait til that gives an indication first.

I want to join you in the FB group but I too am nervous someone will know me, worst case through work which would just be (this is very unlikely as I'm in a very niche field).
